Obama Campaign Books….

I know there are going to be a gang of these books coming out over the next few months. I’ll probably do a round-up of them at some point. I voted for O, but was not a starry-eyed devotee like most of my friends. LOL. I’m a true Cynic. And definitely NOT a Clintonista. Anyway, one of my favorite anecdotes from the book is below, and true or not, very funny.

After Obama locked up the nomination, Pennsylvania Gov. and ardent Clinton supporter Ed Rendell got a note from an Obama supporter attached to a can of Kool-Aid telling him to drink up.

So the next day at a Philadephla fundraiser for the Pennsylvania Democratic Party, the ever-demonstrative governor poured it into a glass of water and proclaimed: “Now I feel that Senator Obama is the most wonderful person ever to have lived in the United States of America. The smartest, most sensitive most decent and honorable man. Now I understand what you guys have been feeling for the last six months.”

Rendell is such a phenomal ass. There are a number of other anecdotes which, true or apocryphal are funny as hell.
